This year on Library Lovers’ Day, Friday 14 February, we asked you to share with us what you love about libraries, learning, or your field of study. And we received some great responses.
We asked...
What you love about libraries:
- No judgement zone 😊
- Librarians are helpers
- Welcoming spaces
- I like how libraries allow you to hold space for your thoughts
- Making learning accessible, fun, safe and for all
And of course,
- Books!
What you love about learning or your field of study:
- Things I haven’t known before
- I love absorbing new information!! I love environments that foster it
- Critical thinking and deep analysis
- Learn from the past to understand current affairs.
